User Testimonials
	Cyberstanc Vortex Threat Detection	Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	Because of its integration with Windows, it is very easy to deploy and manage. Any IT department should be able to leverage the software and interface. The admin portal provides weighted recommendations that comprise the Secure Store, offering admins, security teams, and business owners valuable insights into their security footprint without requiring a strong security background. The software would be ideal for small and mid-sized businesses that cannot dedicate resources to security. Larger enterprises would also benefit, but may require the enhanced license. Incentivized MM Michael Miller IT Engineer Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	One, it's crazy lightweight, so compared to some of the competitors that we also have used with our security services, it's really lightweight and so I don't have a lot of overhead on the system that it's running on. It does really fantastic PowerShell integration. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	So the fact that Defender for Endpoint still works with signatures is actually, I don't know, a little difficult for us because, I mean, since Microsoft trusts those signatures, you can easily inject code. And we've done it many times. To show that you can inject code through vulnerabilities like CV 2013, 99, and 33 but still keep the signature. So because of the trust of those signatures, the malware just kind of slides into the environment without Defender knowing. That's the first part. The second part is that the behavioral analysis is not precisely its Prime. It's not Defender's best capability for endpoints. So, Defender does not identify all behaviors considered by other EDRs in the market. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	Microsoft Defender is closely catching -up in market with existing competitors they have added DLP endpoint & DLP Network and Cloud DLP solution last year with OCR capabilities. I would say Microsoft Defender is not legacy Vendor in end point security, the need to learn from other vendors in market and focus on new XDR technologies, which is going to be new battle for all vendors Incentivized Bhuwan Chandra Business Development Manager Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Because in terms of the usability is easy to understand, it's easy to manage, obviously you need to have specific skills to do that, but I would say that even the console and the product is walking through the flow that you are looking for on this console. Incentivized GG Gustavo Gonzalez Cybersecurity Senior Engineer Read full review

Performance	No answers on this topic	Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is easy on memory and resources on clients. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	Overall support is really good for this product. Since it's a Microsoft product, you will get good support from a number of different resources, including knowledgebase articles on the web, support from Microsoft technicians, and documentation (which tends to very thorough). Also, there is a vast user support community for this product, so user support forums would also be another valuable channel to get help if needed. I don't envision too many people will have issues/problems with the product, as it tends to run good overall. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Implementation Rating	No answers on this topic	Deployment was handled by our team here and everything went pretty smoothly. We did have a few hiccups in our test group, but that only took a bit to get ironed out. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
